The +Rio Grande Valley Zeitgeist Movement will be holding its annual Z-Day event on Sunday, March 17th, between 1:30 and 4:30, at the Dustin Michael Sekula Memorial Library in Edinburg, TX. Our event will focus on a screening and discussion of the ongoing web series +Culture in Decline, which examines major aspects and foundational assumptions of our culture and society. The major topics will include our dysfunctional economics, our corrupt political system, major value disorders and our propensity for war. While exposing these problems, we will also be exploring their potential solutions, rooted not in political or religious ideologies, but from a perspective that takes into account all people, and our technical ability to solve common human problems. We are excited to share this show with you, and engage in discussion about these and many other aspects of a culture in decline, and what we can do to help make it better for all people. We invite the public, and we hope to see you there!

The ongoing webseries Culture In Decline, by Zeitgeist Movement founder Peter Joseph, has just released its fourth episode, entitled "War On Nature". As has been established by the series, this episode takes a closer look at the manifestation of war in a historical cultural context, and its continued and increasingly larger presence in society at large. It continues to be entertainingly irreverent and critically provocative as many common aspects of corporate media complicity and the generated propensity for conflict by the establishment is explored.

The Culture in Decline series will be the focus of our annual Z-Day event this year, as we continue to engage the public with information and media that challenges their assumptions and invites them to question their own beliefs. We will posting more about that event shortly.
